Staying with my sister in law and signed up for Shipt. I didn't have a card to use to pay only an EBT, so she paid for it for me. Shipt cancelled the order and when I tried to contact to find out why, nobody answered me. They could have at least given me the courtesy to answer me on why it was cancelled.Customer Answer

When you place an order with Shipt, we preauthorize the amount your order is expected to cost plus a small allowance for substitutions and/or additions. These will be pending charges, but we will only capture the amount of your order total based on the items that your shopper delivers to you.
If for some reason we do not preauthorize for enough, we will take the remaining balance out as a second payment. If the preauthorized amount is more than your actual order total, we will refund part of that preauthorization and only charge you based on your accurate order total. We have emailed you the receipts from the orders you've mentioned in your complaint for your record.
We understand this wait for an explanation of charges was not the best, and we want to make the delivery process as seamless and easy as possible. We have applied an ***** credit to your account for your next delivery placed on Shipt.com. Should you have any trouble using this credit, our Experience Team can always be reached directly at ************, via email at *********************************** and via live chat on our homepage at Shipt.com.

I originally placed an order. The order was delivered and the chemicals had spilled out. I was missing multiple items and I reported this immediately. I was informed I would receive a follow up email but rather than waiting I reached out via email. The agent did not handle my issue and proceeded to not assist me with my issue. He then left my chat without closing it and never assisted me after an hour of chatting. I called customer service and was informed that my issue had been denied with no valid reason. I am requesting a full refund and I also want to file a formal complaint against the chat agent that I spoke withBusiness Response

I signed up for SHIPT service for free 2 hour delivery from Target for orders over $25. It's been 16 days since my last order. Now all of a sudden they are charging a 'REGIONAL SHIPT SHOPPER BENEFIT FEE" OF $4.99. I called and asked about this and was told it was to comply with Prop 2. that's a bunch of BS. I read all of Prop 22. IT SAYS NOTHING ABOUT THAT. If they have to pay benefits to their Shipt Shoppers, that's their problem. This was not part of the Shipt agreement I made last year when I signed up for SHIPT. There should be a class action suit made against Shipt.Business Response

As a company, Shipt always seeks to provide an exemplary customer experience. We consider anything less to be unacceptable, and we definitely want to make this right as quickly as possible.
Shipt customers who place an order for delivery in ********** will see a $3.99 fee at checkout. This fee helps support our shoppers and ensure they receive all benefits under Proposition 22, including guaranteed earnings for driving time, shopping time, and mileage as well as a health care subsidy for eligible shoppers.
We would like to express our sincerest apologies to this customer for the poor experience and frustration this caused. We canceled their membership, as requested, on October 4th and contacted Target to have their $99 membership fee refunded on the same day. They should see that reflected on their bank statement within the next 5-7 business days. Target can be reached at ************** should the customer need to contact them directly regarding their refund.

I am rejecting this response because. You cancelled my SHIPT membership and as of today's date, 10/13/23. I have not received a refund. Shipt is owned by Target so I don't know what they mean by "they contacted Target". Now, since the one year membership was not up yet, you have taken away the benefits prior to the end of the term AND I don't have my money back.

On 9-24-2023 I placed a shipt order.There was a special promotion that for any order over $15, they would give you $100.00 off.I placed order#********* and the total order after the $100.00 promotional discount was applied was going to be $25.97. I had secured a time slot and paid.Then a couple hours later I received a text message and and email that Shipt had cancelled my order, due to incorrect pricing information. Turns out this was the $100.00 promotion.So I then had to reorder my whole grocery order at full price. I called and they told me it was due to a system glitch and that they could not offer the $100.00 promotion.In my opinion, you can't offer someone $100.00 off, then just take it away. When they cancelled my order they cancelled my time slot for delivery as well. I then had to get my order hours later than expected and I had to go through ordering it again.I want the $100 promotion that I was offered and was took away from me.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I was offered $100 off for any order over $15 and that is what should be honored. I placed a valid order over $15 and I was not given what I was told I would be given. I was also inconvenienced by having to change the delivery time of my order by multiple hours. This is highly unacceptable.

Hello. I have never used Shipt, a delivery service, but continue to get text messages from the Shipt company regarding orders placed by someone else ("***"). These text massage come to me every time *** orders, as he entered the incorrect phone number for his account. I have asked the shoppers, who text me updates on his orders and ask questions, to please notify *** he has entered the wrong number. I have called customer service twice and had my number removed from his account. Yet, I still get text messages weekly when he orders deliveries through Shipt. It is not only annoying to me to constantly get text massages that have nothing to do with me, but it is also unsafe practices. I have been asked what medicines the shopper should purchase. I have been sent photographs of the location the shopper dropped off his packages. I cannot understand why Shipt is allowing my number to be associated with Dans account when I have told them of the problem repeatedly.Business Response

I have been a Shipt customer since 2020. I had an order not get delivered or shopped at all for me. The shopper just went and marked it delivered. It was a $300+ order. The shopper never started the shopping (they send you a text when they do). Anyway, I called customer service 2x. Both times they were extremely short with me and said they would look into it to get me a refund They never got back to me and I called again and got know where with customer service. I ended up cancelling my credit card purchase for that particular order I tried ordering again from them and they suspended my account because I cancelled the charge for the purchase that was never shopped or deliveredBusiness Response
